James Cameron just celebrated his 70th birthday on August 16th.

This director, known as the God of Cards, is still tireless in his film world even though he is already in his seventies.

In recent years, Card Game has been busy with his "Avatar" sequels. "Avatar 3: Fire and Ash" is scheduled to be released in December next year, while "Avatar 4" and "Avatar 5" are still waiting for the audience in the more distant future.

In fact, in addition to the "Avatar" series, Cam has two new films scheduled!

Despite being very busy, Kashen still finished filming his National Geographic documentary during the break from Avatar.Explorer of the Seas, which premiered on August 18 and is available on Hulu and Disney+.

In addition, he also revealed a new Terminator project of his own.

All of these were revealed by James Cameron during an interview with foreign media. The reason for the interview was because of another science fiction film "Alien: Reaper", and James Cameron is a "senior" director who directed "Alien 2".

As the seventh film in the classic sci-fi series "Alien", "Alien: Revenge" is directed by Fede Alvarez, who has directed "Don't Breathe", "The Call" and "The Evil Dead". The box office in mainland China has exceeded 300 million yuan, making it a dark horse in this year's summer movie season.

The timeline of "Alien: Reaper" lies between the first "Alien" directed by Ridley Scott in 1979 and the second "Alien 2" directed by James Cameron in 1986, continuing the dark and mysterious sci-fi style of the Alien series.

Director Feder had previously said, "Cameron had seen Alien: Revenge and liked it very much," but when asked about this,But Ka Shen directly said that he was not familiar with the other party.

Cameron said he had seen a rough cut of "Alien: Reaper" six months ago, "so I believe it has changed a lot now." He said he had made some suggestions at the time and hoped that everything would go well for the other party, "but I think the creativity I proposed for that movie was exaggerated."

Cameron pointed out that director Ridley was the actual producer of that film.

Cameron prefers to talk about his own works, such as the documentary "Ocean Explorers" directed by him which just premiered on August 18.

This documentary was filmed and produced during Cameron's break from filming the sequels to the Avatar series. Cameron has always had a strong desire to explore the ocean and has made several deep dives before.

"Ocean Explorer" is also fulfilling Kashen's own ocean dream.

As early as 2014, there was a documentary called "Deepsea Challenge", which recorded the whole process of Cameron successfully diving to the deepest part of the ocean - the Mariana Trench in the single-person submersible "Deepsea Challenger".

At that time, Cameron dived to the bottom of the sea 10,000 meters below the sea, and the diving depth reached: 35,756 feet (about 10,898 meters), which is the limit of the ocean depth.

This time, Cameron narrated the six-episode documentary "Ocean Explorers," calling it "one of the most ambitious ocean adventures ever." The series tells the story of a young research team exploring unknown ocean territory on a state-of-the-art ship.

Cameron said excitedly, "What excites me is that we actually completed this 'damn' thing."

He revealed, "We have a 6,000-meter remotely operated submersible and a 2,000-meter submarine. We have an excellent diving team, and we have a group of young researchers and explorers who really understand themselves."

He said that in the past few years, the filming of this documentary had been delayed due to the epidemic, and because he was filming "Avatar", he was actually unable to be on the ship, "So when we were working in the editing room and saw all the footage and the amazing things they were able to collect, it was amazing!"

"When you go into the ocean, the ocean hasn't read your script, so you never know what's going to happen." For example, they encountered a shocking scene in the ocean and recorded it: killer whales taught their children to eat humpback whale calves that were protected by their mothers.

Netflix is ​​about to start airing the animated series "Terminator: Zero" on August 29. When asked about his opinion of the series, Cameron, the creator of the movie "Terminator", said: "It's very interesting to me that other people make up stories in the world I set."

When talking about "Terminator: Zero", director Cameron revealed that he is making a brand new "Terminator" - "I am now working on my own "Terminator" project, which is completely confidential."

As for other things, Ka Shen was unwilling to reveal a single word. Last year he mentioned that he was writing a new "Terminator", but it is not known whether it is the same project.

It has been 40 years since "The Terminator" was released in 1984, directed by Cameron and co-written by him. It was this movie that made Arnold Schwarzenegger go from a muscular hunk to a true movie star.

As for the production progress of "Avatar 3", Cameron remained tight-lipped.

He said, “You’re going to love it, but I can’t talk about it.”

Regarding the previous rumors that Cameron might not personally direct "Avatar 4" and "Avatar 5", Cameron himself also refuted the rumors.

He said he has a lot of energy and “loves doing what I’m doing, so why shouldn’t I (direct)?”

Seeing that Cameron, who is already 70 years old, is still passionate about movies, we should just wait patiently for his sequel to "Avatar" and the new "Terminator" that cannot be revealed.
